A Safe Space

A Safe Space

CREATE A SAFE SPACE FOR LGBTQ+ STUDENTS

Focus: LGBTQ+ RIGHTS

Create flyers, posters, or art and post them around school, such as classrooms or hallways (with the school's permission) to demand a safe space for LGBTQ+ students.

This Campaign:

By creating these flyers and pieces of art, you can help bring awareness to LGBTQ+ rights and demand a safe space for LGBTQ+ students in your school.

PROBLEM:

Bullying is a serious problem in many schools, ranging from cyberbullying to physical violence, but bullying LGBTQ+ students, in particular, is more likely to be ignored or mishandled by staff. Many schools struggle to support and create a safe environment for LGBTQ+ students.

SOLUTION:

By using flyers and posters to spread awareness of the struggles many LGBTQ+ students face, we can demand school administrations to try harder to create a safe environment for LGBTQ+ students.
